My Winnipeg

Located at the intersection of documentary and dreamscape, Guy Maddin's brilliantly funny "docu-fantasia" depicts his hometown — "the heart of the heart" of North America, the official geographic centre of the continent — as a vortex sucking up all of that landmass' wild, displaced emotional and sexual energy. Mixing the brazenly fictional with the incredibly stranger-than-fictional, My Winnipeg half-lies the honest truth.
